Question

I have InstantRails installed along with WeBrick and sqlite3.

What exactly do I type in the Windows cmd console to setup a db called ‘development’ and to get the entire things running?

This is my #&%^# 4th day of installation. I can get everything running on my localhost EXCEPT setup my db. I’m not a programmer so if you have a good url for beginner tutorials that would be great.

Please tell me exactly what I need to type in the cmd console (or what console I need) to make my db hold the information.

I was typing $ sqlite3 db/development.sqlite3 to (boot up?) the db.

Then I typed: CREATE TABLES (code)

Note – I already tried rake db:migrate

Answer 1

Try rake db:migrate (assumimg you have at least 1 migration created ) . The db should be created automatically.
